Ever wish you could have music pumping out of your shoes? Of course you have (right?), and that means you’ll be ecstatic to learn of the Sneaker Speaker, a speaker designed to be fitted over your sne– er, trainers.

The Sneaker Speaker is the first product from design studio Ray Kingston Inc., and features two headphone-like bands that hold it in place on top of a shoe. It uses Bluetooth to pair with a mobile phone, tablet or similar, enabling it to wirelessly stream sounds while you’re taking your morning constitutional.

There’s also a 3.5mm stereo input, for use when the Sneaker Speaker is off-foot and on your desk. The speaker runs on a 9V block battery.

There’s no word on a price or release date yet, so there’s a chance this could be a concept that never makes it onto the shelves – but we’ll keep you informed if we hear more.
